2.2Installing the SIMATIC Box PC 620
The SIMATIC Box PC 620 can be operated in all the usual fitting positions. It is
particularly suitable for fitting in consoles, switch boards and control panels.
The SIMATIC Box PC 620 with AC power supply meets the requirements for a
fire enclosure to EN60950. it can therefore be fitted without an additional fire
enclosure.
The SIMATIC Box PC 620 with DC power supply is an open device (right device
side); therefore the mounting must meet the requirements of a fire enclosure.
Please note the following points when installing the PC:
Avoid extreme ambient conditions as far as possible. Protect your PC from
dust, moisture, and heat.
Keep the PC out of direct sunlight.
Mount the PC as safely as possible to prevent any danger (for example, by
falling over).
The clearance around the housing must be at least 100 mm at the front and
rear, so that the PC is sufficiently ventilated.
Make certain that the ventilation slots for the housing are not covered.
Observe the permissible fitting positions without fail when installing the
systems.
Warnung
!
If the systems are installed in a non-permissible fitting position, the approvals
pursuant to UL 1950, UL 508 and EN60950 are no longer valid!

2.3Preparing for Operation
Connection to the Power Supply Unit
Note
The SIMATIC Box PC 620 is equipped with a safety-tested mains cable and may
only be connected to a grounded grounding outlet.
Make sure that the socket on the device or the grounding outlet of the building
installation is easily accessible and as near as possible to the device.
The SIMATIC Box PC 620 has no mains switch. The mains plug must be pulled
out for complete mains separation. This point must be easily accessible.
If the PC is installed in a cabinet, there must be a central mains disconnector.
Commissioning the SIMATIC Box PC 620
The standard power supply unit of the SIMATIC Box PC 620 is designed for
115/230V systems.
The power supply unit has automatic mains voltage changeover. It is not
necessary to adjust the voltage span.
Equipotential Measures
Low-impedance ground connections ensure that faults arising from external power
supply cables, signalling cables or cables to peripheral units are diverted.
Therefore connect the equipotential grounding connection on the system housing
to the central earth terminal of the cabinet or the unit, into which the computer is
fitted, in such a way that it has low impedance (large surface area, large contacts).
The minimum cross section should not be less than 5 mm2.
The connection is on the side of the device and is identified by the symbol:

Connecting and Switching on the SIMATIC Box PC 620
Before you connect the SIMATIC Box PC 620 to the mains, the keyboard, mouse
and display or monitor must be connected.
1. Insert the connector cable of these peripheral units into the corresponding
sockets on the port side of the SIMATIC Box PC 620
(see Section 4.2.)
2. Once the peripheral units have been connected, the device is ready for
operation from the power supply. Connect the device to the mains. The
SIMATIC Box PC 620 is now in service.

2.4Transport
Transporting
Despite the fact that the SIMATIC Box PC 620 is of rugged design, its internal
components are sensitive to severe vibrations or shock. You must therefore protect
the PC from severe mechanical stress when transporting it.
Use the original packingmaterial if you have to ship the SIMATIC Box PC 620
from one location to another.
Caution
!
Risk of damage!
When transporting the PC in cold weather, when it may be submitted to extreme
variations in temperature, make sure that there is no moisture (condensation) on
or in the PC.
Commissioning the SIMATIC Box PC 620
The PC must be allowed to reach room temperature slowly before you switch it on.
If condensation has formed, you should wait approximately 4 hours before switching on the PC.
